------------------------------------------------------
Subject: omap2_mcspi.c: NULL pointer dereference
From: Scott Ellis <scott@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Check spi->controller_state before dereferencing.

Shows up NULL here when using spi_alloc_device()/spi_add_device()
and spi_add_device() fails before spi_setup(). Calling spi_dev_put()
on the leftover spi_device results in the error.
